president obama is on the last leg of his historic trip to asia. he arrived in cambodia just hours ago along with secretary of state hillary clinton to attend the east asian summit. just before that, president obama made history as the first sitting u.s. president to visit myanmar formerly known as burma. he praised the nation on one hand for making progress in trying to move past its repressive history, but he says there are still steps for it to take to reach full democratic reform. >> i stand before you today as president of the most powerful nation on earth but recognizing that once the color of my skin would have denied me the right to vote. and so that should give you some sense that if our country can transcend its differences, then yours can, too. every human being within these borders have a part of your nation's story and you should embrace that. >> president obama began his three-nation tour in thailand before going to myanmar and now cambodia. >>> okay. let's head back to gaza city. the media center came under attack by israeli forces.

so i think a first thing to look at is actually president obama's budget. president obama's budget actually does have specific way to get to additional $1.6 trillion in revenue, people may not like it. we can have a debate around it but it goes line by line as you can get an additional $1.6 trillion in revenue. when it comes to entitlements it has an additional $300 billion in savings. health care it goes line by line. in the next several weeks my guess is we're not going to agree to all those lines. my hope is they agree to overall targets when it comes to entitlements and revenue, they may lay out a number of the ways that you'd end up reaching those targets and several months after that, that actually write the legislation. i think the danger is that when it comes to the discretionary budget, 40% of the budget that's annually appropriate, where you decide how to allocate resources annually, what they decide to do is they end up reducing that category three or five years out. they realize they don't have to make the hard decisions for three to five years
